TESTIMONIALS

Don’t take our word for it, hear how joining the governance team made a difference to some of our members…

“I have learnt much from others, both junior and senior, and have enjoyed the exchange of ideas. I have been able to shape events and strategies using my expertise. I have fine-tuned my non-clinical skills and have brought many ideas back to my local hospital trust, directly benefiting my patients and colleagues."
STEPHANIE BALDEWEG Clinical Committee

“Working on Society activities will repay you in many more ways than you can possibly imagine, so get involved. Citizenship roles in the Society feel really rewarding, and will help you past bumps in your career where maybe your day-to-day work is not quite what you desire!’
RUTH ANDREW General Secretary

“One of the major benefits has been the networking opportunities. This has been particularly valuable at this early stage of my independent career, establishing collaborations and having people to support and review grant applications."
KIM JONAS Programme Committee
